Chance was 15 years old when his interest turned mainly to music and had the opportunity to perform on "The Voice". Taking the experience from competing with other artists and the experience from performing on the show, he favored the idea to become a musician despite the general conceived fallacies of the music industry. As a result, Chance embraces music with all the challenges that come with it and the hard work involved while staying true to being himself. As a result he has released many successful singles including "High's and Lows" "Bleeding Out" and "In My Room" earlier this year. On July 21st, Chance will be releasing the EP "Lovers to Strangers" which will include "In My Room." The single already has over 100+ million plays on Spotify.
